Graal Classic...

StoneColdRichie · #1 03-10-2001, 01:06 PM

Has anybody been on Classic lately? Thym and LAT have really done a good job with it.

FatherDante · #2 03-10-2001, 01:07 PM

I went on it and was so intimidated by the reform that I was too overwhelmed and had to go back to the unchanged but pleasant 2001 server.

greezi · #3 03-10-2001, 01:41 PM

I just went. I don't really see anything new. The Game! Can you tell us what are new to the server?

Crono Illusion · #4 03-10-2001, 01:50 PM

Babord is one of the many new things worth visiting. Check it out by getting onto the Airship, and flying there.

Tyhm · #5 03-10-2001, 02:06 PM

Preferably AFTER I get the Airship Fix up, unless you want to do the workaround....=P

FatherDante · #6 03-10-2001, 03:28 PM

The whole server has changed... it's too dramatic, I can't handle it. I wish Tyhm was working on the 2001 server. ;_;

greezi · #7 03-10-2001, 04:46 PM

Nice work Thym!

grim_squeaker_x · #8 03-10-2001, 06:28 PM

Hmm I think the fix mainly just consists of the teleport thing in the new airship checking for either Airship control or Spaceship control... But anyways I think we all know what the engineer and the operator in the top of that spaceship are referring too.

Psyker · #9 03-10-2001, 08:57 PM

I haven't been on it lately, but I'll check it out soon enough. (if I don't lag too much)

FatherDante · #10 03-10-2001, 10:11 PM

There's still too much going on there. So many people, I can't handle it.

But when I first got on, I thought: "Wow, I forgot how nice it is to move at the Lizard shield speed."

Nai · #11 03-10-2001, 10:57 PM

yeah! Tyhm! Come work on Graal2001 PLEASE!

Fai · #12 03-10-2001, 10:59 PM

You should get 5 gralats per 25 pounds because it is expensive to fish and you don't get much.

FatherDante · #13 03-10-2001, 11:10 PM

You gotta be kidding me! I made 150 gralat fishing over 4 days! If it was 1 gralat for every 5 pounds that'd be like 1 gralat for every fish!

Zulithe · #14 03-10-2001, 11:15 PM

I've been there, seen some of the changes. It has changed so much I don't know where many things are anymore. I'll be more excited once a 15th heart is up

FatherDante · #15 03-10-2001, 11:17 PM

It took me about 20 million tries to beat the nay impossible poneister, and then, what do they do? Replace him with an easy boss. |:|

Zulithe · #16 03-10-2001, 11:30 PM

I was one of the lucy ones, I didn't have to fight him ^_^

Just walk up to him and hit him once I think is how it went

Fai · #17 03-10-2001, 11:32 PM

I was one of the unlucky ones who did it the day it was released, and it had 50 people stuck in each room. It took me 6 hours to beat it.

Zulithe · #18 03-10-2001, 11:37 PM

Oh man what hell that must have been. Worse than hosting a survivor!

FatherDante · #19 03-10-2001, 11:40 PM

You mean when the gravity tower was first released, Fai?

Zulithe · #20 03-11-2001, 12:35 AM

Fai with all your spam I'm surprised you have not responded to this thread yet!

FatherDante · #21 03-11-2001, 12:36 AM

LMAO all his spamming is distracting him from the posts that are right there for him to make!

Zulithe · #22 03-11-2001, 01:12 AM

Yup. Faiiii wake uuuuppp answer the question!

grim_squeaker_x · #23 03-11-2001, 02:00 AM

Harharhar! Ph33r me since I've defeated the poneister boss before he was made easy

, he wasn't all that hard actually.

FatherDante · #24 03-11-2001, 02:05 AM

He wasn't that easy, either. If he was, people wouldn't have such trouble with it.

Unless your talking about the old poneister.

Tyhm · #25 03-11-2001, 02:09 AM

NIGH=Near
NAY=No

Anyway, people figured out you could pause in Poniester's and lock everyone out of ever getting the Liz Sword, so Gesh made one that works in multi. Of course, the whole "continent"'s a mess, and not even Antago likes it anymore, so we're moving the Lizard Sword out...

FatherDante · #26 03-11-2001, 02:12 AM

Darnit, that's what I meant!

Anyway, Tyhm, what about the other question, why don't you come and help out on the Graal2001 server?

Nai · #27 03-11-2001, 02:19 AM

Tyhm...come to Graal2001! PLEASE!

grim_squeaker_x · #28 03-11-2001, 02:24 AM

I'm talking about the 20 hearted rock shotting baddie placing bird thing.

Nah the original Poneister was too easy I defeated him with only 10 hearts.

Nai · #29 03-11-2001, 02:26 AM

lol. Poineister was easy. I killed him because he was stuff on the wall and didn't use any weapons. =)

Tyhm · #30 03-11-2001, 03:40 AM

I'll go to G2K1 when I'm done with CGM: when the Goldsword quest is up, Magic's integrated, and a job/nation system exists to keep oldbies occupied....which is a hair away from never.

I'll give you guys miscellaneous stuff that doesn't fit on Classic though....

FatherDante · #31 03-11-2001, 03:43 AM

[doh!!]
There'll never be a nation stystem! CGM doesn't need one anyway, just throw 'em goldsword as a bone and come to G2k1!

Tyhm · #32 03-11-2001, 05:14 AM

That'd be fairly irresponsible...what kind of G2K1 admin would I be if I gave CGM the most powerful sword and ran? You'd half expect me to do the same when NW comes out...give G2K1 the goldsword as a bone and leave.

And there will be a nation system after I make one. ^_~

grim_squeaker_x · #33 03-11-2001, 05:17 AM

Erm... I hope there will be a Zol's pub nation out there then

, oh well I'll try guessing what there will be.. Here I go:

Avalon.
Graal (I.E. Graal Castle)
Babord
Lunaris (Or the moon of course)
Destiny (This one is a big maybe for me)

Tyhm · #34 03-11-2001, 05:55 AM

Also, Gnomes and Ninji...I have the rest written down...there's some preliminary sketches for a Zorbi nation...

grim_squeaker_x · #35 03-11-2001, 05:59 AM

Heh, well I haven't really done the new Gnome's place yet.. But I could have expected the Ninji's. And the Zorbi's too of course

vergil · #36 03-11-2001, 06:04 AM

The lag gets in the way of the quests. =(

FatherDante · #37 03-11-2001, 06:30 AM

In truth, I think the Goldsword should not be available. Why? Right now, everyone has 14 hearts and a level 3 sword. It takes everybody 10 hits to kill everybody else. What'll happen when the gold sword quest (and presumably, fullheart) is included? Everyone will have 15 hearts and a level 4 sword. It will take everybody 8 hits to kill everybody else. The effect is only to shorten the overall fighting time between deaths.

The more valuable ideas are playernations and magic and stuff. I think that's the way to go, wrap it up, then bring the Tyhm-o-matic to Graal2001!

grim_squeaker_x · #38 03-11-2001, 06:32 AM

Hmm, well I think that if the goldsword would come online it'd need a fullheart maximum of 20 to balance it out.

FatherDante · #39 03-11-2001, 06:38 AM

That would be completely self defeating, then everything would be exactly the same except NPCs would be used even less.

Lomgren · #40 03-11-2001, 06:39 AM

The goldsword is going to be limited to certain areas only, from what I have heard, so that might make up for it. Of course, there could be plans to have 20 fullhearts, since there is going to be magic and the goldsword. I would think it would be almost necessary, in fact.
